Relaxing Retreat Apollo Beach l Waterfront I Pool l Spa l Dock I Firepit
Welcome to a piece of paradise where there is plenty of space for everyone in this Charming 4 BR/2BA coastal bungalow. Located just 2 miles from the Nature Preserve and Manatee Viewing Center on a Tampa Bay canal. Relax by the pool, swim your cares away, or soak in the hot tub. Hang out on the dock and fish, grill up some favorites, kayak down the canal, or cozy up by the firepit. The fully updated interior lets you enjoy all the comforts of home during your stay.
Bring your boat or jet ski and put in at the Apollo Beach Marina down the street. Tie up to the dock. One floating jetski dock is available for parking your ski at your own risk. The other dock and ski are not available or part of the rental.
*** The pool and hot tub and dock are brand new as of August 2024.

We enjoyed a day in Bradenton boating, visited the manatees and Tampa Zoo. The hottub and record player were a nice touch. Would highly recommend this home. Walking distance to breakfast and a dollar store that sells everything.

House was very clean and had all the necessities you would need. Comfortably slept our family of 9. Jacuzzi/Hot-tub was awesome, but weather was a little chilly for the pool. No issues getting in contact with property owner when needed. Awesome home tucked away from the chaos of the larger tourist areas, but close enough to get to beaches. Will be back soon.

The property was very clean. The perfect location. You're just minutes away from shopping and eating places. You have the canal right behind the house. We really enjoyed our stay. We hope to visit again someday.

Property was just beautiful in person as in the photos. We had an immediate feeling of relaxation ypon arrival. The home fit all 13 of us very comfortably. The outdoor space was beautiful. Once the pool is done we'd love to come back!

Beautiful home. Great choice to wind down and relax. The view sitting out back is beautiful, by the dock or fire pit. Inside is roomy and the beds made for a wonderful nights rest. We hope to return in August.

The home was beautiful, very clean, and the location was great! The host Marzena was quick to answer any questions we asked and I've never been in a home I've rented as stocked with everything you need to cook, clean, and extra's (towels, toilet tissue, etc). The bed was so comfortable that we had to see what is was. The pool was nice and the dock was even better. Just know that there is a caretaker living in the back of house and has his own entrance in the side of the house behind a gate. We found that out after reading the rules and the history of the property and saw him a few times in his van and once in the pool area getting a water sample of the pool. Even with that, we had a great time. Thank you for supporting the military and Veterans and providing the discount, you don't see that anymore!!!

Love this home. Great location. Best of all you can just relax by the pool or fish out back. We took day trips to Clearwater beach and St Pete.
